OK, after some horrid dreams about the Internetius Trolliaus BBC Wildlife document, I'm back.

And I actually managed to find a (false) piece of news on the site of the largest game magazine in Finland, titled 'New ending to ME3', the article itself being about two lines long. And that is the first mention in the magazine in question of the movement. So yeah, I'm glad I have never been a subscriber to the magazine, sine the quality and objectivity is clearly overwhelming...

On the bright side, judging by the comments, most people are either on our side, or at the very least neutral. Nice change from exotic experiences I have had the joy to have over at IGN.


Good morning again! Thanks to your helpful imagery last night I had David Attenborough narrating my dreams!

You need 4000 and you have to save Anderson from the Illusive Man (by talking or Renegade option) or 5000 and you can let Anderson die, according to what I've read. I play MP and use the datapad to get some extra readiness, so I'm always at 100%.

Yo, I had a friend send me a message about the Mass Effect Final Hours app. I don't have it, but I was wondering if someone could verify this, but apparently Casey Hudson said the ending was not meant to bring closure but invoke "feelings" from the players (its meant to be in the app somewhere).

If thats true, then Bioware willingly lied to us about the ending. They would have known full well that what they were telling us through the reviews about giving answers and giving us multiple endings was all false.

I'm fairly certain that if true, if Casey did say that...it would bring a whole new level of s**t to this issue.


Yes is the short answer. "lots of speculation from everyone" is the long answer.

Not sure about the Final Hours app (not paying 3-4 bucks for it)... But from what I gather from another quote, he wanted the endings to be polarizing and talked about. The problem is, I think the way he wanted to talked about is more like discussing exactly what happened, where the characters will go from here, what happened to the universe, etc. Don't think they expected it to be remembered for the backlash and not the story.


Doesnt change the fact that they've been saying that we'd get all our answers, and that we'd get closure and whatnot. Telling us the opposite of what they were doing...hells, if Id know they were going to screw us over, I would have just imagined the ending myself and not purchased the game.

To me  thats a sign a of lazy writer when the fans  know the characters better than the creators.  FYI, there is  no way I would walk up to say...  Stan Lee or Tite  Kibo and  claim I know Spiderman and Ichigo better then those two. They put that much attention and care in the character.   The fact that they had Joker and the crew do some thing so blantely OOC  just shows how disconnected with the narrative the endings are.  This also  shows that they need to have better checks on the writing staff at  Bioware because a good editor  would have caught this. 


That's if they even had anyone go over it. You've heard the stories about how Mike Gamble and Casey Hudson just closeted themselves in a room and wrote the end by themselves without any input from the writing department...

 

Yeah, that is clear evident in quality of these endings... anything I right i send off to a few people first, people who I know are not going to spare my feelings  and give the blunt honest truth...It helps so very much.

Nah, it's just Sunday (in the States) and we haven't had any news or new articles to post. Also starting to run out of theories and such. I'm sure it'll pick up tomorrow at some point.

Anyway, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed about the Indoctrination Theory. Though, if true, I don't get why they'd just keep so quiet on it. I know they want to announce something big at PAX, but when things have gone the way they do, you've got to make some changes to your strategy. This ordeal has to be taking it's toll on them as much as it is us.

If they had given us a propper ending and closure, there would have still been debate about what the best choice was at the end (if it was a propper choice!) and what could come next, but as we all know we are just pissed now

A couple of days... did you get the twitter feed that said they're only going to 'expand' on the current ending?
